Everyone Is Acting Like They Beat Ronda Rousey

After months of pre-fight buildup and occasional trash-talking, Ronda Rousey, the previously undefeated UFC bantamweight champion, walked into UFC 193's octagon on Saturday night with a target on her back and a championship belt to defend.

Challenger Holly Holm won in a stunning upset, knocking out Rousey, and in the fight's aftermath, Rousey's critics eagerly poured it on, gloating about her loss as if they were powering Holm's winning hooks and head-kicks.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump found plenty of joy in Rousey's loss, taking her down in a Sunday night tweet that read like, "Rousey is a bad person and bad people need to lose in life."

Glad to see that @RondaRousey lost her championship fight last night. Was soundly beaten - not a nice person!

Lady Gaga bizarrely weighed in as well, scolding Rousey on Instagram, "That's what you get for not touching gloves," referencing Rousey's pre-fight refusal to touch-em-up with Holm. Breaking a standard sportsmanship tradition in fight sports isn't the best look, but Rousey's air of arrogance in that moment wasn't going to make a difference in this fight -- Holm simply dominated.

“I’m [expletive] stoked,” Tate said. “[Expletive]Ronda Rousey. [Expletive] her and her ‘Nobody has the right to beat me.’ Nobody has the right to beat you? Well you just got beat, [expletive]. Anyways, I’m proud of Holly. She had a perfect, flawless game plan. She came in with it tonight and now she is the champion. I look forward to that fight, because I think that I’m next in line.”

While Tate's already looking forward to fighting Holm, Holm's coach is playing down her win, claiming that Rousey's loss was preordained in his mind.

"It was pretty much what we thought would happen," said Greg Jackson, one of Holm's head coaches to ESPN. "Obviously, she's an amazing athlete and we have nothing but respect for her, but she's been very successful doing the same things for a long time, and we were able to capitalize on that."

Unless Jackson's clairvoyant skills are in sync with Rousey, who eerily predicted exactly how she'd lose during a "Tonight Show" appearance last month, there's no way one can be sure of a result, especially considering how heavily favored Rousey was. Of course, saying, "It was pretty much what we thought would happen" is an easy, smug thing to state as your fighter lifts Rousey's old championship belt.

Out of all of Rousey's detractors emerging from the woodwork, surprisingly enough, Floyd Mayweather, one of Rousey's perceived enemies, offered the most measured analysis of Rousey's situation.
